Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Mehrschichtlackierung mit insbesondere Wasserlacken, welches insbesondere Anwendung findet im Bereich der Fahrzeugreparaturlackierung.The invention relates to a method for multi-layer coating with in particular Water-based paints, which are used in particular in the field of Vehicle refinishing.
Aus ökologischen Gründen ist man bestrebt, auch auf dem Gebiet der Fahrzeugreparaturlackierung in zunehmendem Maße lösemittelbasierende Lacke durch Wasserlacke zu ersetzen. Die entwickelten Wasserlacke haben bereits ein Qualitätsniveau erreicht, das sie in einer Mehrzahl von Eigenschaften den lösemittelbasierenden Lacken ebenbürtig macht. Einige Eigenschaften haben jedoch noch nicht das Qualitätsniveau lösemittelbasierender Lacke erreicht. Beispielsweise wird beim Einsatz wasserverdünnbarer Füller noch eine unzureichende Schleifbarkeit festgestellt. Desweiteren ist es problematisch, eine gleichmäßige Qualität der Lackierung, insbesondere bezüglich Oberflächeneigenschaften und Zwischenschichthaftung, bei unterschiedlichen äußeren Bedingungen zu gewährleisten. Besonders schwierig ist es, unter den Bedingungen einer stark variierenden Luftfeuchtigkeit eine reproduzierbare Trocknung der Wasserlacke und daraus resultierende gleichmäßige Oberflächenqualität der Lackierung zu erzielen.For ecological reasons, efforts are also being made in the area of Vehicle refinishing increasingly by solvent-based paints To replace water-based paints. The developed water-based paints already have one Quality level achieved in a variety of properties makes solvent-based paints equal. However, have some properties has not yet reached the quality level of solvent-based paints. For example becomes insufficient sandability when using water-dilutable fillers detected. Furthermore, it is problematic to have a uniform quality of Painting, especially with regard to surface properties and Interlayer adhesion to ensure under different external conditions. It is particularly difficult under the conditions of a widely varying Air humidity a reproducible drying of the water-based paints and from them to achieve the resulting uniform surface quality of the paint.

Die gleichmäßige Qualität der Lackierung soll insbesondere auch unter stark variierenden Umgebungsbedingungen bei der Applikation, wie z.B. der Luftfeuchtigkeit, gewährleistet sein. Eine gleichmäßige Qualität der Lackierung soll ebenso an kritischen Stellen, wie Sikken oder Kanten gegeben sein. Weiterhin sollen die erhaltenen Füllerschichten gut und rasch schleifbar sein. The object of the invention was therefore to provide a process for multi-layer coating, in particular for vehicle refinishing, which it enables, even when using water-based filler coatings Filler layers with high and uniform quality of painting, in particular in terms of surface properties and interlayer adhesion. The uniform quality of the paint should especially under widely varying Ambient conditions in the application, such as the humidity, to be guaranteed. A uniform quality of the paint is also supposed to critical points, such as sikken or edges. Furthermore, the the filler layers obtained can be sanded well and quickly.
Es hat sich gezeigt, daß diese Aufgabe gelöst werden kann, wenn eine auf ein gegebenenfalls vorbeschichtetes Substrat auf getragene Füllerschicht mit NIR-Strahlung bestrahlt wird. Ein Gegenstand der Erfindung ist daher die Verwendung von NIR-Strahlung zur Bestrahlung von Füllerschichten bei der Mehrschichtlackierung von Substraten.It has been shown that this task can be solved if one is on a optionally precoated substrate on the applied filler layer with NIR radiation is irradiated.

Ein weiterer Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zur Mehrschichtlackierung, bei dem auf ein gegebenenfalls vorbeschichtetes Substrat ein Füllerbeschichtungsmittel appliziert und anschließend gehärtet wird, auf die erhaltene Füllerschicht eine Decklackschicht aus einem farb- und/oder effektgebenden Basislack- und einem Ktarlackbeschichtungsmittel oder aus einem pigmentierten Einschichtdecklackbeschichtungsmittel aufgebracht und gehärtet wird, welches dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß nach Applikation des Füllerbeschichtungsmittels die noch nicht gehärtete Füllerschicht mit NIR-Strahlung des Wellenlängenbereichs von 760 bis 1500 nm bestrahlt wird.Another object of the invention is a method for multi-layer coating, in the case of a filler coating agent on an optionally precoated substrate is applied and then cured, on the filler layer obtained Top coat layer consisting of a color and / or effect basecoat and a Ktarlack coating agent or from a pigmented One-coat topcoat is applied and cured, which is characterized in that after application of the filler coating agent not yet hardened filler layer with NIR radiation in the wavelength range from 760 to 1500 nm is irradiated.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausfuhrungsform der Erfindung wird ein wäßriges Füllerbeschichtungsmittel appliziert. Es ist jedoch auch möglich, lösemittelhaltige Füllerbeschichtungsmittel zu verwenden.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, an aqueous Filler coating agent applied. However, it is also possible to use solvent-based Filler coating agent to use.
Nach Applikation des insbesondere wäßrigen Füllerbeschichtungsmittels kann gegebenenfalls die erhaltene noch nicht ausgehärtete Füllerschicht eine Ablüftphase unterzogen werden. Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung wird die Bestrahlung mit NIR-Strahlung zur Trocknung der insbesondere wäßrigen Füllerschicht durchgeführt.After application of the particularly aqueous filler coating agent optionally the not yet hardened filler layer has a flash-off phase be subjected.

Sie kann beispielsweise bei Raumtemperatur, forciert bei höheren Temperaturen, durch Bestrahlen mit UV- oder IR- oder NIR-Strahlung erfolgen. Bevorzugt erfolgt die Endhärtung mit UV- oder NIR-Strahlung.The hardening of the aqueous filler layer (final hardening) can be carried out with a suitable Hardening procedures take place. For example, it can be forced at room temperature higher temperatures, by irradiation with UV or IR or NIR radiation respectively. Final curing is preferably carried out using UV or NIR radiation.
Es ist jedoch auch möglich, die Härtung der Füllerschicht nach einer gegebenenfalls gewährten Ablüftphase nur mit einer einzigen NIR-Bestrahlungsphase durchzuführen.However, it is also possible to harden the filler layer after one granted flash-off phase only with a single NIR radiation phase.
Die Anwendung von NIR-Strahlung allgemein zum Trocknen von Farben und Lacken ist bekannt. Als Anwendungsmöglichkeiten werden beispielsweise folgende Bereiche genannt: Druckbranche, Folientrocknung, Rohrtrocknung, Holzbeschichtungen, Pulverbeschichtungen. Als besondere Vorteile der NIR-Technologie werden die sehr rasche Trocknung, insbesondere bei Wasserlacken und die schonende Trocknung durch geringe Erhitzung des Substrates genannt. Über Anwendungsmöglichkeiten dieser Technologie in der Fahrzeuglackierung, insbesondere der Fahrzeugreparaturlackierung ist nichts bekannt.The use of NIR radiation in general for drying paints and varnishes is known.

Überraschend wurde nun gefunden, daß die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung durch die Verwendung von NIR-Strahlung zur Trocknung und Härtung von insbesondere wasserbasierenden Füllerschichten in einem Mehrschichtaufbau gelöst werden kann. Ebenso überraschend war, daß eine Trocknung des Füllers direkt mit NIR-Strahlung überhaupt möglich war. Auf Grund der hohen Schichtdicke und der sich durch die Bestrahlung schnell schließenden Fülleroberfläche war vielmehr zu erwarten, daß ein erheblicher Eigenschaftsgradient von der Filmoberfläche zur Grenzfläche zum Untergrund bezüglich Härte, Schleifbarkeit und Haftung entsteht.Surprisingly, it has now been found that the object of the present invention through the use of NIR radiation to dry and harden in particular water-based filler layers in a multilayer structure can be. It was also surprising that the filler was dried directly with NIR radiation was even possible. Due to the high layer thickness and the rather, the filler surface that closed quickly due to the irradiation was closed expect a significant property gradient from the film surface to the Interface with the surface in terms of hardness, grindability and adhesion arises.

Geeignete Strahler weisen beispielsweise ein Emissionsspektrum mit einem Maximum zwischen 750 und 1200 mm auf.The irradiation with NIR radiation carried out in the method according to the invention can be carried out with a customary high-energy NIR radiator.

Nach 10 Minuten Ablüftzeit bei Raumtemperatur erfolgte jeweils die Bestrahlung mit einem NIR-Strahler (500 W/cm2) zur Trocknung der Füller. Der Abstand Strahler/Objekt betrug jeweils 10 cm, die Bestrahlungszeit 10 s. Die Endhärtung der Füller erfolgte nach 5 Minuten mit einem zweiten NIR-Bestrahlungsschritt unter gleichen Bedingungen, jedoch mit einer Bestrahlungszeit von jeweils 15 s.A filler coating composition based on a water-dilutable two-component (2K) epoxy / amine system was produced in accordance with DE-A-196 25 345, example filler 1. The filler was applied to a suitably prepared fender of a motor vehicle coated with a conventional primer in a resulting dry film thickness of approximately 80 μm at 40% and at 70% relative air humidity. After a flash-off time of 10 minutes at room temperature, irradiation was carried out with an NIR emitter (500 W / cm 2 ) to dry the fillers. The distance between the radiator and the object was 10 cm, the irradiation time 10 s. The fillers were finally cured after 5 minutes with a second NIR irradiation step under the same conditions, but with an irradiation time of 15 s each.
Auf die gehärteten Füllerschichten wurde jeweils ein Wasserbasislack (hergestellt entsprechend DE-A-196 43 802 , Herstellungsbeispiel 4 ) in einer resultierenden Trockenfilmschichtdicke von 13 bis 15 µm appliziert. Nach einer Ablüftphase von 25 Minuten bei Raumtemperatur, wurde jeweils ein lösemittelbasierender Klarlack (Basis OH-funktionelles Acrylatharz/Polyisocyanatvernetzer) in einer resultierenden Trockenfilmschichtdicke von 50 µm appliziert. Nach einer Ablüftphase von 10 Minuten bei Raumtemperatur erfolgte jeweils die gemeinsame Härtung von Basislack und Klarlack innerhalb von 30 Minuten bei 60°C.A water-based lacquer (was prepared in each case on the hardened filler layers according to DE-A-196 43 802, preparation example 4) in a resulting Dry film thickness of 13 to 15 µm applied. After a flash-off phase of 25 Minutes at room temperature, a solvent-based clear coat (base OH-functional acrylic resin / polyisocyanate crosslinker) in a resulting Dry film layer thickness of 50 µm applied. After a flash-off phase of 10 The base coat was cured together at room temperature for minutes and clear coat within 30 minutes at 60 ° C.
Es wurde ein Füller auf Basis eines mittels UV-Strahlung härtbaren
Bindemittelsystems hergestellt. Folgende Komponenten wurden dazu miteinander
vermischt und mittels Schnellrührer einige Minuten homogenisiert (alle Angaben
beziehen sich auf das Gewicht):
Der Füller wurde auf einen entsprechend vorbereiteten, mit einer üblichen Grundierung beschichteten Kotflügel eines Kraftfahrzeuges in einer resultierenden Trockenfilmschichtdicke von etwa 60 µm bei 40 % und bei 70 % relativer Luftfeuchtigkeit aufgebracht. Nach 10 Minuten Ablüftzeit bei Raumtemperatur erfolgt jeweils die Bestrahlung mit einem NIR-Strahler (500 W/cm2). Der Abstand Strahler/Objekt betrug 10 cm, die Bestrahlungszeit jeweils 10 s.The filler was applied to a suitably prepared fender of a motor vehicle coated with a conventional primer in a resulting dry film layer thickness of approximately 60 μm at 40% and at 70% relative atmospheric humidity. After a flash-off time of 10 minutes at room temperature, irradiation is carried out with an NIR emitter (500 W / cm 2 ). The emitter / object distance was 10 cm, the irradiation time was 10 s each.
Nach 5 Minuten erfolgte die Endhärtung durch Bestrahlen mit UV-Licht mittels einer UV-Blitzlampe (3500 Ws). Es wurde jeweils mit 30 Blitzen (ca. 120 s) in einem Abstand von etwa 20 cm bestrahlt. After 5 minutes, the final curing was carried out by irradiation with UV light using a UV flash lamp (3500 Ws). It was fired with 30 flashes (approx. 120 s) in one Irradiated distance of about 20 cm.
Die gemäß Beispiel 1 und 2 mit dem Füller beschichteten Kotflügel zeigen sowohl bei
40 % relativer Luftfeuchtigkeit als auch bei 70 % relativer Luftfeuchtigkeit am
gesamten Objekt einschließlich Sicken und Kamen eine einheitliche gleichmäßige
Oberflächenqualität.
Es wurden in den Beispielen 1 und 2 jeweils bei 40 und 70 % relativer Luftfeuchtigkeit die gleichen oben genannten Ergebnisse erzielt.In Examples 1 and 2 it was relative at 40 and 70%, respectively Humidity achieved the same results above.
